Needed coffee but not a lot of money so I pick up the 7 single serve packets Folgers instant dark roast and I am so happy with this coffee I've tried it regular and iced (I like the iced best). Please try this product it is so bold and smooth aroma is good and the consistency was good it blends well!!
Noticed here lately in 2026 it’s more of a watery taste time to check out other brands even in smaller cups than I usually drink it’s tasting like water down coffee
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I buy several coffees in a supermarket and blend them at home to make my own brews. Folgers Black Silk is the foundation for all of my creations. It doesn’t disappoint.
I am an older 74 year old retired coffee snob. I never tried any Folgers coffee until this year when curiosity finally got to me and I tried the Columbian roast. I loved it! I then got courageous and tried Black Silk blend. I absolutely love it! It is rich and bold yet very smooth and not bitter at all. I also tried the Simply Smooth decaf and now drink that every day in the afternoons. All are very smooth, not bitter, and taste much better than most hoity-toity specialty roasts I have been drinking for years. I also tried the Breakfast blend and Gourmet Supreme but they dont seem to have the same characteristic as flavor the others have. I am still a coffee snob but these Folgers blends are now my daily go-to coffees. They just taste really great to me and some days I brew a pot of each in the morning just so I have a variety to savor all morning. Thank you.
Let me open with I love Folgers coffee. I also love other coffees of the same caliber. Black silk was my choice. Recently, I’ve noticed a change in the flavour. It’s not as bold, robust, and , and at the same time, smooth as it once was. It’s taste rather watered down, not as rich in depth as it once was. I lean. towards dark roasts, bold and rich in depth. I hope this is only a temporary situation. Thank you. Regards, jimmiec
